The drama revolves around the doctor Choi Won (portrayed by Lee Dong Wook) being swept up in the assassination by poison of King Injong. (Weird Fact: During the Joseon period nearly 25% of the kings were actually assassinated by poison) The doctor Choi Won needs to clear his name because he is associated with the murder and he tries to figure out a way to heal his daughter who has caught an incurable disease.

After the first round of filming Lee Dong Wook stated, “This is the first time that I am doing a historical drama so I was very nervous. However, the filming felt good because the chemistry among the actors was very good. Because I am working with excellent staff and actors, I will try even harder.”

Song Ji Hyo who plays a female doctor/nurse on the drama stated, “The filming setting was very nice. The chemistry among the staff and other actors/actresses was great. It felt like we had been doing this together for a long time. The filming set and the script are a lot of fun. The chemistry with everyone is so great that I think this is a good ensemble. I hope you anticipate the drama!”

“Heaven’s Order” will have its first broadcast at the end of April. It will replace the timeslot of “Iris 2.”
